Title: Tracky in all her glory awaiting another hunting season
Post by: texrok on April 10, 2006, 04:55:57 PM
Here's a couple of pics of my tracker.  Ready for another good hunting season.  I plan on a 3" body lift, suspension lift and new tires.  It would also be nice to get 'er street legal again.   ;D  Enjoy.

I was just wondering because i am a hunter and fisherman also. Of course here in Michigan a zillion people hunt. Actually, i even guide on the side. Just traditional bowhunts and fly-fishing though.

I prefer bowhunting, but I rifle hunt a lot too.  This little rig has hauled a few out of the woods for me and my deer lease buddies.  When I found this rig I was looking for a 4 wheeler.  I found this Tracker, it was cheaper than any used 4 wheeler, and it had a radio.  Anyway it was blue, but after $6 worth of paint at Wal-Mart, here ya go.  I can't wait to do the mods on this thing.  I just need the time and $$$.

Cool. I used mine last season for the first time as a hunting vehicle.  Even spent the night in it once. Here is a picture of the first buck it carried out of the woods for me. I was worried the roof would cave in so i went real slow over the bumps.  :-\

I gotta ask, how do you get a deer out of the woods with a 2 door soft top Tracker? ???

Drag it on a sled like with an ATV?

I'm just curious now that I think about it. :P

I would hang mine "hog tied" and tied to my pre-runner winch bumper. My fiernd would just put his in the back of his trooper (no carpet) and then just wash it out when he got home.

I always run mine with the top off and the rear seat folded forward and just pile 'em in the back.  Since then I have removed the rear seat and removed all the carpet in the back.

By the way, that is a good buck Shredder.

thats EXACTLY what I was thinking!
I know those things can handle quite a bit.



What the heaviest thing you put on that rack and how did it affect driving?
(I know the max load but what did you PUT on it)

"Deer in the Headlights Look"  vs.  "Man Posing for Camera Waiting for Flash Look".

Is there a resemblance or am I cRaZy?  ???

Texrok:  I like the paint job and the space saver spare tire.  ;)  I also took the carpet out of the whole rig.  That's why they have drain plugs, right!

95XL7:  That is what I'm talking about for hauling stuff.  I'm making one to go on the back of the camp trailer and then I can use it on the 'Kick when I need it.

Yeah, I kinda blew a tire last time I was at the deer lease.  I plan on getting bigger tires so I have not replaced that one yet. ;D
